The Human Book - Chronicles of Successful Alumni, Focus: Game Development

Date:: Wednesday, April 4, 2018
Time:: 2:00pm - 4:00pm
Location:: Dougherty Reading Room
Location:: Science & Engineering Library
Categories:: Workshop

The Human Book is a new Library speaker series for every UCSC student. We know that life after college can seem intimidating. As a response, we are bringing alumni to campus every quarter for our Human Book event.

The event will give students a chance to listen to someone who used to face similar challenges when they were a student at UC Santa Cruz years ago. The alumni will talk about how they surmounted these obstacles and ultimately built a successful career. There will also be ample time to ask questions.

Focus: Game Development

Land Acknowledgement

The land on which we gather is the unceded territory of the Awaswas-speaking Uypi Tribe. The Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, comprised of the descendants of indigenous people taken to missions Santa Cruz and San Juan Bautista during Spanish colonization of the Central Coast, is today working hard to restore traditional stewardship practices on these lands and heal from historical trauma.

The land acknowledgement used at UC Santa Cruz was developed in partnership with the Amah Mutsun Tribal Band Chairman and the Amah Mutsun Relearning Program at the UCSC Arboretum.
